Pennie 26 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Hydration is the activity! People are always asking us about "How to get our residents to attend hydration related activities. So 1 of the things that I thought would be fun & get residents out, would be something along the lines of a "Mixology" type activity. I like this name, it would bring me out to see what's going on. Imagine the benefits of a activity that not only provides hydration, to keep your residents alert but also provides beneficial vitiams from the juices you choose. This would be a activity that residents would attend. They would create a signature drink to compete for the most exciting mixology drink of the day. Samples would be served & judged by those in attendance They would vote on their most favorite mix & the winner would be come the drink of the week and named for the resident who created it. If you did this daily, and then did a recap at the end of the week to narrow it down to 1 weekly winner and the 4 weekly winners could compete for a spot in the monthly newsletter. If nothing else you would have residents out getting hydrated. As the AD you would pick they daily themes or weekly. Example you could have tea & then have things to mix in with the tea come up with a half and half concoction. IE. The new lemonade teas. (Checkout Sonic) Even throw a twist have a sandwich artist contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
